Integrating third-party libraries

[canalrun]

Hello,
I think B4A is great.

I think the biggest feature that is missing is the ability to integrate third-party libraries.

There are a ton of useful libraries out there. It's just not possible to write a custom interface or wait for someone else to provide an interface. Then there is a question of library updates and new features…

If I go to a company and say I want to use B4A, the first question they will ask is: "Can we use third-party libraries?". Right now I'd have to say, "Yes, but".

I know there are technical hurdles, but if even interfacing to most third-party libraries was possible, I think that would be a huge feature for B4A.

Thanks for a fantastic tool,
Barry.

I totally agree. If I want to take a project to next level or build complex work, then support for third part java libraries are a must. I'm already missing this feature and planning to migrate to native java based development. What a pity, B4A looked so good.
